Chapter 509 Come Out, What?
That’s how domestic entertainment works.
Many people actually hope that domestic entertainment will die, because given the current situation, domestic entertainment really should die.
But it's difficult.
This is the current state of domestic entertainment.
People always say that domestic entertainment is dead, but it is basically the bad money that drives out the good money.
Many works have turned into scams.
Some movies are just terrible, but they rush to release them on Valentine's Day, then directly commit fraud and earn hundreds of millions at the box office.
For many people, face is really not important.
What face do you want?
As long as I can make money.
At the same time, the movie will be promoted in the early stages, but it will definitely not be premiered. It will even keep controlling the hot searches, suppress some spoilers, and at the same time find a bunch of people to promote it.
In this regard, people like Xiaoxiao are using it.
As a result, the movie can earn 100 or 200 million yuan at the box office on Valentine's Day.
After all, love movies are low-budget, so that’s basically it.
Anyway, no matter what, these people are shameless.
It is extremely difficult to defeat shameless people.
For two consecutive days, although his penis was 2.8 meters long and could strip Xiaoxiao and others of their underwear, he did not actually beat them to death. They just remained silent temporarily.
This is also a form of public relations.
You can get away with it by pretending to be dead.
After a while, Xiaoxiao will basically be able to make a comeback.
After all, the Lunar New Year holiday will come right after the National Day holiday, and Xiao Xiao and the others will definitely come out to take on work.
This is normal.
Unfortunately, they met Yu Xiaoshu, Baiqian Media, and the leader of the internet troll army Liu Qianqian.
Liu Qianqian still started some investigation on Xiaoxiao and others. She was preparing to take action in the next stage.
Netizens’ memories are indeed easy to forget, but she is not easy to forget.
Liu Qianqian was ready to confront these people.
If I can’t kill domestic entertainment, can I not kill you? ?
Here, Liu Qianqian was doing her professional work, and on the other hand, Yu Xiaoshu had already started preparing for the celebration banquet of "Detective Chinatown".
How to say it???
The current box office of "Detective Chinatown 3" has just exceeded 1.8 billion, and it is only a matter of time before it breaks 2 billion. But it is obvious that the current box office has actually been rising very slowly.
This is when the celebration banquet comes into play.
A celebration banquet is needed for publicity.
Other movies are basically the same.
What is needed for a celebration banquet is to invite some guests.
At this time, when Baiqian Media wanted to hold a celebration party for "Detective Chinatown", it could be said that almost everyone would come as soon as the invitations were sent out.
Who would be stupid enough not to come???
There is no need to mention Yu Xiaoshu's current abilities in the screenwriting circle, not to mention his influence. If one could get a script from Yu Xiaoshu, then perhaps one could make a big leap forward.
In this regard, Yu Xiaoshu does have the ability.
So, the celebration banquet was scheduled for October 15th.
The celebration banquet is not decided today and will not be held tomorrow.
We always need to give everyone some time. For some invitations, others may not be available immediately.
Of course, October 15th is also a day due to box office predictions.
Because around this day, the box office of "Detective Chinatown 3" successfully broke 2 billion.
It is conceivable that during the 7-day National Day holiday, the box office of "Detective Chinatown 3" stopped at 1.7 billion yuan, and then in the remaining 8 days, "Detective Chinatown 3" only earned 300 million yuan at the box office.
On October 14, the box office had actually exceeded 2 billion.
Another movie by Yu Xiaoshu that broke the 2 billion box office.
Congratulations to Yu Xiaoshu, you can always trust Yu Xiaoshu.
Yu Xiaoshu's new movie grossed over 2 billion yuan in 14 days after its release, proving that he is still popular.
Slap in the face, slap in the face, Yu Xiaoshu is either slapping someone in the face or on the way to getting slapped in the face.
On the one hand, there is online publicity about the box office of "Detective Chinatown".
In fact, not only has "Detective Chinatown" broken 2 billion, but the box office of "No Return" has also exceeded 1.6 billion.
As another masterpiece of Xia Bing, the movie "No Return" can be said to be truly powerful.
Veteran directors will not necessarily be abandoned by the market.
Several directors of the same period as Xia Bing are basically like this.
Some have indeed been abandoned by the market, but some have still achieved good results.
This is something that couldn't be more normal.
The celebration party for "No Return" will be held a little later, on October 18th.
And what is interesting???
Yu Xiaoshu actually received an invitation to the celebration party for "No Return", and it was Xia Bing who invited him personally.
Since it was Xia Bing who invited herself personally, it was natural for "Detective Chinatown" to invite Xia Bing as well.
After all, no matter what, Yu Xiaoshu is still a junior in front of Xia Bing.
Yu Xiaoshu still has a lot of respect for Xia Bing.
Xia Bing is now 65 years old, but she is still full of passion and is still continuing to learn.
You know, it is really rare to be able to maintain a strong desire to learn at this age.
On October 15, the celebration banquet for "Detective Chinatown" was held as scheduled.
Yu Xiaoshu was no longer the protagonist of this celebration banquet.
Yu Xiaoshu is a screenwriter. He has his own label in every movie, but most of the time Yu Xiaoshu still gives opportunities to others.
He is the screenwriter of this movie. Now that the celebration party has been held, he, as the screenwriter, should just stay behind the scenes.
After all, the next step in the celebration should be left to the director and actors.
It was indeed not easy for everyone to shoot "Detective Chinatown".
kindness.
that's all.
Yu Xiaoshu was actually hiding nearby and didn't even accept the interview.
In Yu Xiaoshu's opinion, sometimes you have to keep a low profile.
The current "Detective Chinatown 3" does not need any so-called crooked publicity.
"Teacher Yu, why are you here?"
Yu Xiaoshu looked at the polite Xia Bing in front of him and said hurriedly, "Director Xia, I just said I didn't see you."
Xia Bing laughed: "There was a traffic jam on the road, so I was late. I thought you were on the stage."
"Let other people take charge of the stage. I'm just a screenwriter, so I'd better not join in the fun."
Yu Xiaoshu waved his hand slightly and said.
Xia Bing said: "Teacher Yu, you were not such a humble person before."
Yu Xiaoshu laughed: "Occasionally, it's appropriate to be modest."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two began talking about movies.
Xia Bing was quite direct in his words. He asked Yu Xiaoshu if he had watched the movie No Return???
Yu Xiaoshu said that he had watched the movie "No Return" and it was quite good, but it was too heavy and the plot was a bit dragged out. The tangled and dragged-out plot was the reason for the poor box office performance.
This touched Xia Bing's heart.
He is indeed a little lacking in screenwriting skills, because when filming the movie "No Return", Xia Bing and his old partner, the old screenwriter, had a falling out.
The two people can be said to have parted ways.
As a result, Xia Bing's photos naturally looked a little awkward.
Yu Xiaoshu really didn't know about this.
He didn't care about the movie "No Return".
During this period, Yu Xiaoshu was writing the script on the one hand, but mainly he needed to focus on "The Wandering Earth", and he was also focusing on several previous film and television dramas, so Yu Xiaoshu didn't have the leisure to watch anything else.
He paid the most attention to Bai Suzhen, because Bai Suzhen's new movie was also selected for this year's Lunar New Year holiday.
"Teacher Yu, actually I came here today because I want to trouble you with something."
When the conversation was almost over, Xia Bing finally stated her purpose.
"oh??"
Yu Xiaoshu was slightly stunned: "Director Xia, if you need my help with anything, just let me know. I will definitely help if I can."
"It's actually a piece of cake for you."
Xia Bing said hurriedly at this time: "I want to invite you to help me write a script, a web drama script will do, you are very good at web dramas..."
Yu Xiaoshu was a little surprised when he heard Xia Bing's words: "Director Xia, it seems that you have never filmed a web drama before."
"Actually, it wasn't me who took the photo. It was taken by an old friend of mine."
Xia Bing smiled bitterly: "But he is out of town and can't come back for the time being, so please ask me to talk to you first."
After listening to what Xia Bing said, Yu Xiaoshu was not surprised.
Sometimes it’s like this in the entertainment industry, relationships are like this, you ask the other person to do something, and the other person asks you to do something, and then the relationship becomes closer and closer.
Although Xia Bing and Yu Xiaoshu had no contact before, Xia Bing and Yu Xiaoshu's teacher were good friends. Xia Bing even spoke up for Yu Xiaoshu when Yu Xiaoshu failed and was suppressed.
Even without these interactions, Xia Bing, as a senior and former director, invited Yu Xiaoshu to write a script, and Yu Xiaoshu had to help write it no matter what.
Then Yu Xiaoshu asked: "Director Xia, what is the subject of this script? Are there any requirements???"
"It's best to have a female lead. Of course, it's okay if it's not a female lead, but it's best if the script is centered around a female lead, and the female lead should be promoted. Let me tell you what kind of actress we want to promote. She should be in her 30s, pretty, but her acting skills are average, not great..."
Xia Bing said to Yu Xiaoshu somewhat helplessly: "Actually, I don't know who this actress is, and he didn't tell me either."
Okay.
Yu Xiaoshu did not ask who the other person was. He believed that the person who could ask Xia Bing to do this must not be an ordinary person.
As for the script.
After listening to Xia Bing's detailed explanation, Yu Xiaoshu actually had a script.
I had actually planned to write this script before, and even had the beginning written, but there had never been a suitable opportunity.
In that case, today is perfect.
This script can be given to Xia Bing.
"I have written the beginning of the script before. I will finish it in the next two days. I will give it to you when the time comes. Please take a look first..."
Yu Xiaoshu said with a smile at this time.
“So fast??”
Xia Bing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
After all, Yu Xiaoshu has always been known as a quick shooter. In this case, it is not difficult for him to write it quickly.
Just like that, at the celebration party for "Detective Chinatown", Yu Xiaoshu and Xia Bing were discussing the script, while the others were simply celebrating.
After the celebration banquet, Yu Xiaoshu did not show up, he just accepted an exclusive interview.
During the interview, Yu Xiaoshu said that the sequel to "Detective Chinatown" has already started, which was something that had been decided long ago. At the same time, Yu Xiaoshu also talked about some other actions of "Detective Chinatown".
Previously, during the roadshow, Yu Xiaoshu said that the sequel to "Detective Chinatown" has been launched and the movie will definitely be released by the end of next year.
In addition, Yu Xiaoshu is actually already preparing for the "Detective Chinatown" universe.
The universe is to be done well.
In fact, on Earth, the first few episodes of the "Detective Chinatown" web drama were very good, and "Detective Chinatown 2" was acceptable. As for "Detective Chinatown 3", it was also acceptable, but because everyone's expectations were raised, something like that happened.
This time, Yu Xiaoshu is planning to gather the efforts of all screenwriters to give it a good go.
"The sequel to Detective Chinatown is in the same world as the web series, but the characters are changed and the protagonist is also different."
Yu Xiaoshu said with a smile: "Anyway, just remember to praise me as much as you can when you write it. Don't worry, I'm not afraid of being praised."
Many people worry about being overpraised, but Yu Xiaoshu is not worried.
First of all, he has actually been being overpraised. Those media and the so-called capital actually all hope that Yu Xiaoshu can fall early, so he has been being overpraised.
Secondly, one should be low-key when it is necessary. For example, at today's celebration party for "Detective Chinatown", Yu Xiaoshu cannot be the protagonist every time.
But you should still be high-profile when it is necessary, such as with your own work.
If a screenwriter doesn't even dare to promote his own work, then there's nothing to say.
After finishing the interview, Yu Xiaoshu prepared to go back to writing the script.
It’s a web drama, and it promotes a female actress. After thinking about it, there is only that one.
On the other hand, while Yu Xiaoshu was being interviewed, Xia Bing called her old friend: "Lao Yao, I've already told Yu Xiaoshu, but what are you doing? You can tell him, okay, he's going to write it in the next two days anyway, I'll send it to you then."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Bing shook her head slightly.
This old friend of his is indeed a little strange.
Yao Qing is currently a representative figure of domestic directors, and his achievements are much higher than Xia Bing. The most important thing is that Yao Qing is years older than Xia Bing, but in terms of creativity and passion for work, Yao Qing is stronger.
People like this can basically be said to have many students all over the world in the entertainment industry.
For this reason, Xia Bing certainly did not understand Yao Qing's approach.
What are you doing? ?
At the same time, Yao Qing smiled and said to his little wife at home: "How is it? Are you satisfied now?"
